Strange thing is that I reviewed the video and didn’t do anything particularly unusual - wheel on the kerb as we exited the corner (I was right behind a 23B) and then got spat off into the inside barrier. Only thing that makes sense to me is that there was oil in the kerb (there’s been a lot of oil on the track), I was in third rather than normal top gear and the diff did the rest.
I’ve had lots of support, have sourced many of the spare parts and ready for the rather full rebuild

Good that you are OK Paul. Don't forget the Delta saying "what man made man can repair".Keep us posted on the rebuild.
